Gen Z and the Multigenerational Workplace
Gen Z and the Multigenerational Workplace
50 episodes carry gen-z/intergenerational-tagged segments — a consistent thread on how generations differ (and how much is just each generation being "different").
What's been said
- Every generation "wants different things" — that's not new. Leanne's framing: the hand-wringing about millennials and Gen Z repeats itself every cycle; the world has changed, and the onus is on businesses to engage and nurture the next leaders .
- Definitional clarity matters. The show keeps millennial (≈1980–94) and Gen Z (≈1995–2010) distinct, because the practical needs differ .
- Research vs. stereotype. Segments push past lazy "lazy Gen Z" tropes to what the research actually shows about younger workers' priorities .
- Age and mentoring. Tied to coaching: whether a 19-year-old can mentor — yes, it's about vision and growth, not age .
